Marcelo might be one of the hardest working individuals I’ve come across

I had the great pleasure of working for Marcelo in the creation of Needs Assessment for Gaspard. Marcelo might be one of the hardest working individuals I've come across. Gaspard is a large company with many variations of regalia, targeted at very different market segments and Marcelo had a rock solid understanding of the entire engine from sales and marketing to manufacturing and fulfillment. Marcelo also had a very clear vision of how Gaspard could grow revenue by utilizing social media and web technologies. He was the most critical resource for our Strategic Needs Assessment and it would be an absolute pleasure to work with him again in the future.

About

BACKGROUND

A lifelong love of technology has led to significant experience in the design and development of websites, both educational and transactional. Using a variety of technologies ranging from Dreamweaver to WordPress, I’ve both led website teams as well as directly created websites for clients. In addition, I’ve facilitated the migration of business processes off legacy systems to modern cloud-based systems and, as a consequence, I have a great deal of experience interconnecting systems like NetSuite ERP and WordPress/Woo Commerce to facilitate the movement of data across an organization.
Another aspect that sets me apart is my breadth of experience. For 20 years, working individually and with teams, I’ve has been involved in Digital Marketing. I bring to my teams the skills of an expert digital photographer, designer and graphic artist in both digital and print. In addition, my digital marketing experience spans several industries, which gives me a variety of experiences and insights. This extensive background knowledge has made me a successful leader and teacher.

His strong organizational and project management skills served him well in meeting a hard and fast deadline

The project was complex, involving not simply an evaluation and reorganization of the content structure, but also the integration of several other microsites and the implementation of a new branding protocol across all programs. Working with a staff of five, and supported by a well-established web development firm based in Toronto, Mr. Vazquez was well-liked by the team. His strong organizational and project management skills served him well in meeting a hard and fast deadline for the launch of the new site and ensuring the project was delivered on budget.

I would highly recommend Marcelo

As CEO of Gaspard I am proud of the work that we did together and would happily have Marcelo back in my organization due to his ability to be a strategist,
his attention to the customer needs, his creativity, as well as his ability to manage. I would highly recommend Marcelo.
